Chemistry - The Two Kinds of Cobalt

Chemistry - The Two Kinds of CobaltHave you ever heard of the term 'cobalt' in chemistry? Have you ever wondered if it was the same as the metal gold, or if it was a rare and valuable element? Well, Cobalt is indeed an important and unique element. It is not quite the same as the gold, but it is quite close.Cobalt has many characteristics that make it unique. It has two oxygen atoms at the center of its crystal structure. If you were to break this atomic structure down, you would find two oxygen atoms that were connected by one hydrogen atom. This means that there are two hydrogen atoms and two oxygen atoms that are connected by one oxygen atom.Now, let's say that the oxygen atoms bonded with one another, but they did not have the hydrogen bond. In this case, you would not find the oxygen atoms, because the bonding atoms would be missing and therefore you would not find oxygen.If you had a little more time, you could read up on what Cobalt actually is. The element is referred to as a transition metal. These metals are not the actual metals, but rather molecules that have a bond that is different from the normal atoms that we are used to.In chemistry, these are referred to as transition metals because they are a small molecule that undergoes a change in the way it behaves, in some instances, changing the way it absorbs and releases heat. This is a very exciting discovery because it means that there are new compounds that can be made. We will just have to wait and see what the next discovery of this type of element will be.Cobalt has become quite popular in recent years because of the fact that it is now used in nuclear fusion power plants. It is now one of the most abundant elements on earth and it is mostly found in cobalt-based minerals and manganese-based rocks.Therefore, the human brain can use Cobalt to have the kind of energy that it needs. There is no such thing as a totally energy-efficient device, but there are some devices that can use the kind of ener gy that we need, and it is through the conversion of Cobalt into Electron Beams that makes this possible. It would be great if there was more of it on the planet, because then, we would all be able to use the power that our brains are capable of.
